A game I recently started playing is ToME or Tales of Maj’Eyal. It is a roguelike singleplayer game.
It has been around since 2010, but it goes all the way back if we count its predecessors. It is also an open-source game.
As of this post:
* There are already 3 expansions.
* The 4th expansion is set to enter beta testing soon.
* The 5th expansion is already being developed in parallel.
Give it a try, available in Linux, Windows, and OSX. (Also available via Steam.)
Check the official website for screenshots, videos, and more information!
A bit of history based on what I was able to find:
* Originally named: Tales of Middle-Earth: The Fourth Age. Set 122 years after the fall of Sauron.
* In 2010-11-21, the game setting was changed entirely into a new one. See: https://te4.org/news?page=27
* Its predecessor was “Tales of Middle Earth”. See: https://www.t-o-m-e.net

@youronlyone @games @gaming I love it, great game. I just wish you didn’t have to unlock the classes through gameplay.
Love the game, have over a hundred hours in it, nice to see a shoutout but why so many hashtags? hard to read the post
@vasus It is!
And apologies, hashtags are important in the fediverse. _
Hmm… what I can do next time is to not use inline hashtags, and just have it in a separate line. Thank you for the feedback!
He is on Mastodon, that’s how Federation works between Lemmy and Mastodon.
Good god. Could you put anymore pound symbols in that post?
@slazer2au Apologies! In any case, updated and moved the inline tags down.
